The object for us as a club and the management this season with all the problems was just to retain our unbroken run in the WPL. As no team has been relegated with 30 points and is unlikely to be, the aim on Tues then would have been to at least attain that number of points, not easy in a local away derby in any circumstances. The management having all the knowledge of the players circumstances on the night regarding, illness, injuries and, other problems that only they would and, should have access too, would then hve picked a team with the players ability and, willingness to do the job that they required. If we had lost on Tues, probably nobody would have given the players, (who do the best they can when asked to do a job by the staff) or the management an easy ride and may have moaned that if we had played a different formation we may have come away with a t least a point? The fact is the team and staff did gain a valuable point, from the game, that was a good solid performance that didn't give Airbus much scope, it wasn't a six pointer either, that allowed them to reach 30 points. We may not like it but we wouldn't like life in the Alliance either, which now looks to be unlikely, as possibly only one team may get promoted. Some of our results have come from similar set ups like this and, our worse when we have had a go at teams, we didnt need that on Tues. night. It isnt our or any visiting teams job to please the home supporters or, make their teams job easier either. To those ends the job was done and, one final point ,made the lives of the players, management, staff and all concerned with the Quay a little less tense, it's not easy playing or, fighting a relegation battle anywhere, i know ive played in a few. Give them a litle slack folks. Quiet rant over. All the best for the rest of the season boys, youv'e earned it.
